Eureka Naval Craft

12/02/2025

Are our current amphibious connectors truly ready for today’s contested littorals?

At Eureka Naval Craft, we designed the AIRCAT Bobcat for the realities of modern littoral operations: Fast, Shallow, and Unpredictable.

With a 50-kt top speed, 1.6-ft draft, and 10-ton payload, Bobcat delivers real combat power where the enemy isn’t looking from two ISVs or three MRZRs to NSM mission modules and armed UGVs.

It’s built to put forces and fires in places that are hard to defend and even harder to predict.

👉 How would you leverage this high-speed, shallow-draft capability in your CONOP?

Eureka Naval Craft is proud to be a supporting sponsor of the American Society of Naval Engineers (ASNE) networking event during the International WorkBoat Show in New Orleans on December 3rd, hosted at the National WWII Museum.

This location means a lot to us. The Higgins boats on display are part of our family heritage and a powerful reminder that simple and innovative designs can change the course of history.

Eureka traces a direct lineage to the Higgins PT boats and landing craft built in New Orleans. This legacy continues to shape our approach today as we focus on practical, mission-first, modular designs that can be produced at scale, including our AIRCAT Bobcat.

We are honored to celebrate this shared heritage and connect with the engineers, shipbuilders, and operators who are shaping the future of maritime innovation.

🚀 Unlock Littoral Dominance, Meet the AIRCAT Bobcat

Eureka Naval Craft introduces the AIRCAT Bobcat, a 57-foot, 50-knot ultra high-speed catamaran built to dominate contested coastlines, rivers, and islands, where traditional access is denied.

🌊 Why it changes the game:

⚡ Speed & Range: 50-knot top speed, 350-nm range at 38 knots. Extended range available with modular fuel tanks.
🎯 Mission Flexibility: Autonomous or optionally manned. Carries 10 tons of payload or 36 troops. Open-deck design supports mission modules and modular weapons systems.
🌍 Go Anywhere : Operates in just 1.6 ft of water, can beach and recover itself. Bow and stern ramps enable rapid roll-on/roll-off operations.
🛡️ Built for the Fight: Low-profile design with optional remote weapon stations, counter-UAS systems, and modular armor.
🔧 Field Tough: Quick-change modular engines, easy service access, commercial parts commonality. Built for sustained high-tempo operations with minimal shore support.
🇺🇸 Production-Ready: Scalable manufacturing across U.S. Tier 2/3 shipyards for rapid, cost-effective delivery.

The AIRCAT Bobcat isn’t just another landing craft, it’s a next-generation tactical workhorse redefining ship-to-shore and island-to-island operations for the U.S. Army and Marine Corps.

🌊 Charting a New Era in High-Speed Maritime Autonomy 🚢⚙️

Eureka Naval Craft, ABS, and AIRCAT Vessels have signed a landmark partnership to accelerate the safe development of high-speed Unmanned and Autonomous Surface Vessels (USVs/ASVs).

This is more than technology it’s about setting global standards of safety, resilience, and trust for defense and offshore operations.

🔹 For defense: faster, safer, more adaptable fleet assets.
🔹 For offshore energy: absolute reliability in harsh seas.
🔹 For regulators: confidence that autonomy can be safer than manned operations.

🚀 Maritime autonomy is no longer a concept – it’s becoming a dual-use reality.
